I am considering the purchase of a 1886 in either 45-70 or 45-90. I do handload, so loads would not be a problem, and ya'll say in a pinch could fire 45-70 rounds in a 45-90 rifle.
I am...

I would like to put my two cents worth in here. Garrett, and two or three other companies are making custom ammo for 45-70 that is safe in Marlin/Henry/ROSSI R 95, and any other clones of...

I thought about that, and I have been a long time fan of 45-70. In the past have owned three Marlins, including the guide gun, two other Henry's including the new all weather with 18.5...

I have a chance to get the deluxe version of their 1886 with the 26 inch octagon barrel, at a fair price, do any of you have any experience with that model?

I have to be honest, I picked up an Uberti EL PATRON, at a local pawn shop, have shot both factory and reloads, and have had no problems. Was used when I got it but not abused.
Not sure...
